She's Just A Friend

I know someone who's dear to me
a friend of mine, she'll always be
somehow, someway she taught me
how to love unconditionally

i thank god i have her
or else i wouldn't know
what it feels to love someone
not just for show

i think im falling for her
and i may be digging my grave
i know she doesnt see me that way
but why do i even care?

she's just a friend, nothing more
someone i could hold on to
but isnt that how you feel
when you fall for someone too?

how can i say what i feel?
when i know it won't mean a thing
how can i make things right?
when she's the one hurting

i can't say i love her
i wouldn't dare
but whenever she needs me
i'm always there

i can just keep it inside
my feelings can hide
it'll burn me in time
but i know it's alright

she's my friend, nothing more
she's someone dear forevermore
now we'll just see what's in store
if love's something we can't ignore
